Sorry, I can't reproduce something similar here. Perhaps if you
read http://www.cygwin.com/bugs.html it might help those on the list.
Also, I'd direct you toward the User's Guide, specifically
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html and the
description of smbntsec.

Oh yes,

On the file with the funny UID, some things work, some don't. For instance,
I can vi it, but I cannot write it. This seems to say that some cygwin

I suppose it depends on what you mean when you say "cygwin doesn't grok

There is a group Guests and a user Guest - however, I'm not sure how to tell
the primary (or the secondary) group of a user.
I think the group entries may be wrong -
